JAKARTA - The Cianjur Police in West Java formed a special team to carry out patrols during Ramadan. This team will disband activities that are forbidden during the fasting month, such as sahur on the road or activities that can create large crowds.

The Cianjur Police Chief, AKBP Doni Hermawan, said that on-the-road suhoor activities were prohibited during the fasting month because they could spread COVID-19.

"A special team has been alerted and will patrol before dawn, they will disperse any crowds that occur including sahur on the road," said AKBP Doni quoted from Antara.

The police will approach and disseminate information before dispersing the crowd so that during the fasting month there are no crowds of residents or youth groups. When they find a group doing activities during fasting or at dawn, they will be directed to return to their respective homes.

A special team will also carry out patrols to a number of crime-prone points in an effort to reduce crime and disease rates in the community, so that during the fasting month until Eid al-Fitr, people can worship in peace without any disturbance.

"Patrols to a number of areas that are prone to crime and other activities during fasting, including the war of sarongs, will be further increased, as an effort to provide a sense of security and comfort for Cianjur residents when fasting until Eid later," he said, Saturday, April 2.

He also appealed to residents to jointly maintain the security and comfort of their area during the fasting month because joint efforts can suppress various community diseases including crime rates and immediately report to the authorities when they find suspicion.
